Detroit Red Wings legend Steve Yzerman is a candidate to become the next general manager of the Philadelphia Flyers.
The Flyers, however, don’t think they have much of a chance to lure Yzerman to Philadelphia.
"I spent some time in Detroit, and I know Yzerman a little bit," Dave Scott, CEO of the Flyers' parent company, Comcast Spectacor, told Philly.com. "My sense is he's pretty committed to someday getting back to Detroit. I think his family is still there. He really put roots down there, and (Red Wings GM) Kenny Holland is getting to a point in his life he's probably going to do different things someday."
Exactly.Why would he take that job if he likes to be near his family?
I will pitch into a Kickstarter for this. Only 55% kidding.Hire me then I will appoint all of you as advisors. We will run polls and discuss here on our subforum. We will build a ****ing dynasty.
I think it could work very well in the facets of brainstorming and troubleshooting, since multiple (engaged) opinions in those areas are almost always a win. But other aspects of the job are inherently best managed by a single decisive voice - media relations, representation amongst other GMs, etc. - and groupthink would suffer there.I will pitch into a Kickstarter for this. Only 55% kidding.
Wondering if "wisdom of the crowd" could work in a general manager setting.
Would help to include the link you found the story from.

Am I the only Wings fan that wouldn't lose sleep if Yzerman did actually become GM of a team other than the Red Wings?
